Definitions
- Labeling station for objects, such as bottles, with a marking device for the labels
- the invention relates to a labeling machine for objects, such as bottles, with a rotating carrier on which a plurality of rotating or pivotally driven removal elements with concavely curved receiving surfaces for labels are arranged, and with stations arranged on the outside of the periphery of the turntable, namely a glue roller, one Label box and a label transfer station, with which the removal elements interact with their receiving surfaces in succession with glue, removal of a label and transfer of the label, one
- Marking device with a writing laser beam is arranged laterally next to the label box and is directed with its laser beam perpendicular to the label held by the receiving surface during label removal.
- Labeling stations of this type are known from practice. If the carrier is equipped with several removal elements, there is not enough space to label the label over a long length with as little distortion as possible.
- the object of the invention is to create a labeling station of the type mentioned at the outset which enables labeling that is as distortion-free as possible over a large length of the label.
- This object is achieved in a labeling station of the type mentioned in that the removal elements located in front of and behind the label box in the direction of rotation of the carrier are controlled in their rotational movements in such a way that the removal element located in front of the label box and not yet bearing a label has sufficient free space in relation to the label box for the passage of the laser beam directed essentially perpendicularly onto the label held by the receiving surface of the other removal element over the entire labeling length.
- the removal element located behind the label box is accelerated in its rotational movement after leaving the label box, while the rotational movement of the removal element located in front of the label box is delayed before reaching the label box.
- the marking station is brought into a pivoting position in front of the label box, taking into account the rotary movement of the removal element can, in which the laser beam can hit the receiving surface of the other removal element without interference through the remaining free space, and because, on the other hand, due to the rotational movement of the removal element, the receiving surface of which holds the label, the receiving surface in the area of the point of impact of the laser beam perpendicular to the area behind the label box Laser beam can be brought.
- the acceleration and / or deceleration of the removal elements is not a disadvantage for trouble-free label removal because the controlled rotary movement remains unchanged during the rolling movement of the receiving surface on the label box.
- the labeling station consists of a rotating carrier 1 with a multiplicity of removal elements arranged in a distributed manner, of which only two adjacent removal elements 2, 3 are shown in the figures.
- the carrier 1, the removal elements 2, 3, the glue roller 4 and the gripper cylinder 6 perform a rotary movement in accordance with the arrows entered.
- the removal elements 2, 3 are assigned a drive, which is not shown in the drawing, but which is well known, which gives the removal elements 2, 3 with uniform rotation of the carrier 1, a non-uniform rotary movement such that the removal elements 2 3 with their convexly curved receiving surfaces 2 a , 3a roll on the differently curved, moving or stationary surfaces of the individual stations 4, 5, 6 and thereby take up glue on the glue roller 3, remove labels from the label box 5 under the adhesive effect of the glue and transfer these labels to the label transfer cylinder 6.
- a marking device 7 in the form of a laser cannon is arranged pivotably to the side of the label box 5. The marking device 6 can be pivoted in the direction of the double arrow.
- Your writing laser beam 7a is directed perpendicularly onto the convexly curved receiving surface 2a of the removal element 2. As shown in FIG. 1, part of the receiving surface 2a has already lifted off the label box 5 and in the process removed a label. The laser beam 7a strikes this label held by the receiving surface 2a perpendicularly, specifically in a side edge. Upon further rotation of the removal element 2 in the direction of the arrow, the marking device 7 is also pivoted such that its laser beam 7a strikes the label held by the receiving surface 2a further vertically until the other edge of the label is finally reached.
- the rotational movement of the removal elements 2 and 3 is controlled.
- the rotational movement of the removal element 2 is accelerated when the removal element 2 has left the label box 5.
- the free space for the passage of the laser beam 7a can be kept large by delaying the rotational movement of the removal element 3 as long as possible. There is still enough time after the end of the label by the laser beam 7a to accelerate the removal element 3 in order to meet the predetermined rolling conditions of the receiving surface 3a on the label box 5.
